Looks fine to me here. Could you verify that the md5sum of the CD1 you received is 400c7fb292c73b793fb722532abd09ad and the md5sum of your boot.iso should be e85a2c096ca6ed46db1cc5e642ab7d6e I've checked the ISO I have on my kickstart server: [root@kickstart iso]# md5sum shrike-i386-disc1.iso 400c7fb292c73b793fb722532abd09ad shrike-i386-disc1.iso [root@kickstart iso]# mkdir test [root@kickstart iso]# mount -o loop shrike-i386-disc1.iso test [root@kickstart iso]# md5sum test/images/boot.iso e85a2c096ca6ed46db1cc5e642ab7d6e test/images/boot.iso As you can see, they are correct. Then, I downloaded the boot.iso to my mac and burned it. I summed the file to make sure it is correct: chrome@wakatta Desktop $ md5 boot.iso MD5 (boot.iso) = e85a2c096ca6ed46db1cc5e642ab7d6e I then booted with the fresh CD and ... Oh, bugger. Now I feel like an idiot. Sorry :) I wonder how the hell I ended up with two bum burns? I deleted all the old boot.iso images off my mac before I burned the new one ... it must be the gremlins. Damn gremlins. I'll just mark this as NOTABUG and go hide somewhere small and dark. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20030306 Camino/0.7 Description of problem: The boot.iso on CD1 is incorrect. If you burn this image to a CD, and boot from it, it comes up with the BETA splash screen, and it will not install RedHat 9. The workaround is to use floppies. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Download RedHat 9 CD1 image from RedHat and mount it. 2. Burn the boot.iso image contained on CD1/images to a CD. 3. Boot from the burned ISO. Actual Results: Splash screen with BETA label was displayed. Installer reported that the FTP directory given was for a different version of RedHat and installation could not continue. Expected Results: The installer should not be BETA, and should allow installation from a RedHat 9 FTP. Additional info:
